The external screen is beautiful. I wanted to capture the experience of getting a phone call and a text message and share it with you guys. One thing to note: The moment you take this device outside, even on a mildly sunny day, you can’t see anything. This is the price you pay for having a mirrored surface.

Notice how far the N93i moves when it vibrates? The (lack of) vibration feature on my E61 would often cause me to miss calls and text messages. Not so with the N93i!

Also notice how there is a light on top that blinks? Another one of my favorite features. The white LED on my E61 is utterly useless. The E series team could learn a trick or two from the N series folks ;-)

    I don’t know about E61… but there is vibration feature on my E62?

  • Stefan Constantinescu

    was that sarcasm =P

  • ray

    How does it show multiple missed calls or received messages?
    Can’t tell if that display is only one line or multiple.

    Thanks

  • cybette

    no no no… I may be wrong, but I thought the vibration feature is in most Nokia devices?

  • Stefan Constantinescu

    It’s in all Nokia devices, but the one in my E61 can barely be felt.

    Some phones do not/did not have it: 9500, 9300 (I think), N90.
